ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the correlation between serum glycated hemoglobin (HbA 1c), γ-glutamyltranspeptidase(γ-GT) and intercellular adhesion factor-1 (ICAM-1) levels and cognitive impairment in elderly patients with hyperlipidemia complicated with cardiovascular disease. Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, 158 elderly patients who underwent examination and were diagnosed with hyperlipidemia complicated with cardiovascular disease at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated with Capital Medical University from January to December 2022 were selected as study subjects. The simple mental state scale (MMSE) was assessed in the subjects in combination with the subject′s level of education. Illiteracy≤17 points, primary school≤20 points, middle school and above≤24 points were classified as cognitive impairment group (67 cases), the rest were were classified into the non-cognitive impairment group (91 cases); and another 50 healthy elderly people who received physical examination in the same period were selected as the control group. The blood samples in the three groups were extracted to measure serum HbA 1c, γ-GT and ICAM-1. The correlation between HbA 1c, γ-GT and ICAM-1 levels with cognitive impairment were analyzed. Results:The serum levels of HbA 1c, γ-GT and ICAM-1 in the cognitive impairment group were all significantly higher than those in the non-cognitive impairment group and the control group [5.41%±1.04% vs 4.82%±0.95%, 4.39%±0.86%; (52.01±10.96) vs (41.28±9.23), (25.03±7.17) U/L; (336.61±85.36) vs (286.93±72.53), (143.52±64.20) g/ml], and the MMSE score was significantly lower [(20.19±2.85) vs (25.30±1.24), (27.14±1.56) points] (all P<0.05). Serum levels of HbA 1c, γ-GT and ICAM-1 were all significantly negatively correlated with MMSE score ( r=-0.512, -0.498, -0.563) (all P<0.05). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) for serum HbA 1c, γ-GT, and ICAM-1 levels in the assessment of cognitive dysfunction were 0.657, 0.816, and 0.691, respectively (all P<0.05). The optimal cut-off values were 5.115%, 47.65 U/L, and 304.58 g/ml, respectively. Conclusion:Serum HbA 1c, γ-GT and ICAM-1 levels in elderly patients with hyperlipidemia complicated with cardiovascular disease are negatively correlated with cognitive impairment, and have certain value for the evaluation and early diagnosis of cognitive impairment.

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the relationship between serum lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2),low-density lipoprotein(LDL),amyloid beta 1-42(Aβ1-42)and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1)levels,the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score and prognosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods A total of 106 patients with AIS who underwent intravenous thrombolysis(the thrombolysis group),30 AIS patients without thrombolysis(the non-thrombolysis group)and 95 healthy individuals(the control group)were included in the study.The thrombolysis group was divided into the recanalization group(n=41)and the non-recanalization group(n=65)according to whether the vein was recanalized after thrombolysis.Patients were divided into the mild group(n=45),the moderate group(n=36)and the severe group(n=25)based on the NIHSS score.They were divided into the good prognosis group(n=65)and the poor prognosis group(n=41)based on the modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score.Serum levels of four indexes in different groups were compared.Their relationship with the NIHSS score and the prognosis was analyzed.Results The vein recanalization rate in 106 patients with thrombolysis was 38.68%(41/106).Serum Lp-PLA2,LDL,Aβ1-42 and sICAM-1 levels were lower in the recanalization group than those in the non-canalization group(P<0.05).Serum Lp-PLA2,LDL,Aβ1-42 and sICAM-1 levels increased successively in the control group,the thrombolysis group and the non-thrombolysis group(P<0.05).The 4 serum indexes increased with the aggravation of disease condition,and were positively correlated with NIHSS score(P<0.05).High serum levels of Lp-PLA2,LDL,Aβ1-42 and sICAM-1 were risk factors for poor prognosis of patients with thrombolysis(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)and specificity of the combination of 4 serum indexes for predicting poor prognosis of patients with thrombolysis were higher than those of prediction with single index(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression levels of serum Lp-PLA2,LDL,Aβ1-42 and sICAM-1 in patients with AIS are high.They can be used as important reference indexes for disease condition monitoring and prognosis evaluation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the correlations between serum E selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and left ventricular geometry and function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) combined with prehypertension (pre-HT).Methods:A total of 462 patients with pre-HT and OSAS diagnosed by polysomnography (PSG) in the sleep monitoring unit of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from July 2019 to July 2022 were restrospectively analysed, and 52 patients with pure pre-HT (pre-HT group) and 73 patients with pure OSAS (OSAS group) in the same period were selected as the control group. OSAS and pre-HT patients were divided into four groups according to left ventricular geometry: normal geometry (NG) group, concentric remodeling (CR) group, eccentric hypertrophy (EH) group and concentric hypertrophy (CH) group. The general clinical data, PSG parameters, blood biochemical parameters and left ventricular structure and function parameters were compared among the six groups. Pearson correlation and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the correlation between E-selection, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, general clinical data, PSG parameters, blood biochemical parameters with left ventricular geometry and function.Results:①Serum E selectin, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1 concentrations increased sequentially from the NG, CR, and EH to CH groups, with the most significant increase in CH group (all P<0.05). In addition, there were statistically significant differences in age, body mass index (BMI), OSAS severity, neck circumference, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), Glu, lowest oxygen saturation (Lowest-SaO 2), mean oxygen saturation (Mean-SaO 2), percentage of time with oxygen saturation below 90% of total sleep time (T90), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd), interventricular septal thickness (IVST), left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), relative ventricular wall thickness (RWT), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), peak mitral early diastolic flow velocity/peak mitral late diastolic flow velocity (E/A), E wave deceleration time (DT), A wave duration (AD), and isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT), and overall long-axis longitudinal strain (GLS) and so on(all P<0.05). ②Pearson correlation analysis showed that E selectin was negatively correlated with LVEF, E/A, e′, E/e′, IVRT, and GLS ( r=-0.236, -0.131, -0.224, -0.215, -0.285, -0.336; all P<0.05). ICAM-1 was negatively correlated with LVEF, E, E/A, e′, IVRT, and GLS( r=-0.130, -0.129, -0.104, -0.351, -0.252, -0.259; all P<0.05). VCAM-1 was negatively correlated with E, e′, and IVRT ( r=-0.132, -0.312, -0.387; all P<0.001). ③Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that E selectin and VCAM-1 were independently correlated with EH (β=1.139, OR=3.124, P=0.030; β=1.288, OR=3.626, P<0.001) and with CH (β=1.178, OR=3.248, P=0.013; β=1.108, OR=3.028, P<0.001). Conclusions:E selection and VCAM-1 were independently correlated with hypertrophic left ventricular geometry, suggesting that E selectin and VCAM-1 may be involved in the process of abnormal left ventricular structure and function in patients with OSAS combined with pre-HT.

Methods:From January 1, 2010 to January 31, 2023, at Department of Gastroenterology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, a total of 500 UC patients (UC group) and 529 gender- and age-matched healthy controls (healthy control group) were collected. The 500 UC patients were divided into mildly active stage (264 cases) and moderately to severely active stage (236 cases); distal colitis (299 cases), extensive colitis (201 cases); of the 500 UC patients, 120 cases received VDZ treatment, and 78 cases achieved clinical response and the remaining 42 cases had no response at week-14. Chi-square test and unconditional logistic regressionmodel were used to analyze the difference in gene polymorphisms of ITGA4 rs6740847, rs7562325 and ICAM-1 rs5498 gene polymorphisms between UC group and healthy control group, between patients of mildly active stage and patients of moderately to severely active stage, between patients with distal colitis and patients with extensive colitis, between patients with clinical response and patients without response through dominant, recessive, and allelic gene models. Results:The results of dominant gene model analysis showed that, the frequency of the variant allele G and the variant genotype AG+ GG of ITGA4 rs6740847 of UC group were lower than those of healthy control group (28.60% vs. 33.18%, 48.00%vs. 56.15%), the frequency of variant allele T and variant genotype CT+ TT of ITGA4 rs7562325 of UC group were higher than those of healthy control group (37.30% vs.31.57%, 62.20% vs. 54.63%), and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=5.04, 6.83, 7.49 and 6.06, P=0.025, 0.009, 0.006 and 0.014); the frequency of variant allele G and variant genotype AG+ GG of ITGA4 rs6740847 of patients with moderate to severe active UC were lower than those of patients with mild active UC (25.42% vs. 31.44%, 43.22% vs. 52.27%), while the frequency of variant allele T and variant genotype CT+ TT of ITGA4 rs7562325 were both higher than those of mild active UC (40.89% vs. 34.09%, 66.95% vs. 57.96%), and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=4.42, 4.09, 4.93 and 4.29, P=0.036, 0.043, 0.026 and 0.038); the frequency of variant allele G and variant genotype AG+ GG of ITGA4 rs6740847, the variant allele T of ITGA4 rs7562325, and the variant allele G and variant genotype AG+ GG of ICAM-1 rs5498 of patients with extensive colitis UC were lower than those of patients with distal colitis UC (24.38% vs. 31.44%, 39.80% vs. 53.51%, 33.58% vs.39.80%, 19.65% vs.26.09%, 35.82% vs. 45.82%), and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=5.87, 9.05, 3.97, 5.54 and 4.94, P=0.015, 0.003, 0.046, 0.019 and 0.026); the frequency of variant allele G and variant genotype AG+ GG of ITGA4 rs6740847 of patients with clinical response were higher than those of patients without response (34.62% vs.21.43%, 61.54% vs. 33.33%), and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=4.52 and 8.70, P=0.039 and 0.001). The results of recessive gene model analysis showed that, the frequency of variant genotype TT of ITGA4 rs7562325 of UC group was higher than that of healthy control group (12.40% vs.8.51%), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.18, P=0.041); the frequency of variant allele G and variant genotype GG of ICAM-1 rs5498 of patients with moderate to severe active UC were higher than those of patients with mild active UC (27.33% vs. 20.08%, 8.47% vs. 2.27%), and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=7.30 and 9.72, P=0.007 and 0.002); the frequency of variant allele T and variant genotype TT of ITGA4 rs7562325 of patients with clinical response were lower than those of patients without response (32.05% vs. 45.24%, 10.26% vs. 23.81%), and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=4.09 and 3.93, P=0.043 and 0.047). Conclusions:The variation of ITGA4 rs6740847 gene may reduce the risk and disease activity of UC, and may increase the clinical response to VDZ treatment in UC patients. However, the variation of ITGA4 rs7562325 gene may increase the risk and disease activity of UC, and may reduce the clinical response to VDZ treatment in UC patients. The variation of ICAM-1 rs5498 gene may worsen the disease activity of UC. In addition, the variations of ITGA4 rs6740847, rs7562325 and ICAM-1 rs5498 gene may all reduce the risk of extensive colitis.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the effects of combined exposure to black carbon and lead on the expression of cell adhesion molecules and their regulating microRNAs (miRNAs) in the rat choroid plexus epithelial Z310 cells. Methods: i) Z310 cells were randomly divided into control group, black carbon exposure group, lead exposure group and combined exposure group. The lead exposure group and black carbon exposure group were treated with 10 μmol/L lead acetate and 10 mg/L black carbon, respectively, and the combined exposure group was treated with both in the above doses. After 12.0 hours, the expressions of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and mucosal vascular addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) in Z310 cells was detected by Western blotting. The expression of miR-326, miR-328-3p and miR-542-3p which regulated ICAM-1 was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction. ii) Z310 cells or Z310 cells transfected with miRNA-326 mimic were randomly divided into control group, miRNA-326 transfection control group, combined exposure group and miRNA-326 transfection combined exposure group. Cells in the two control groups were not treated. The two combined exposure groups were treated with 10 mg/L black carbon and 10 μmol/L lead acetate for 12.0 hours. The expression of ICAM-1 was detected by Western blotting. Results: i) The relative expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and MAdCAM-1 in the cells of black carbon exposure group and ICAM-1 in the lead exposure group was higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The relative expression of ICAM-1 and MAdCAM-1 in the combined exposure group was higher than those in the other three groups (all P<0.05). The relative expression of VCAM-1 in cells of combined exposure group was higher than those in the control group and lead exposed group (all P<0.05). The relative expression of miR-326 in cells of the lead exposure group and black carbon exposure group was lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The relative expression of miR-326 in the combined exposure group was lower than that in the other three groups (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference between miR-328-3p and miR-542-3p in the four groups (all P>0.05). ii) The relative expression of ICAM-1 in cells of the miR-326 transfection control group cells was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05), while in the cells in the combined exposure and miRNA-326 transfection combined exposure group, it was higher than that in the control and miRNA-326 transfection control groups (all P<0.05), and lower in the miRNA-326 transfection combined exposure group than in the combined exposure group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Black carbon or lead exposure can upregulate the expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and MAdCAM-1 in Z310 cells. Black carbon and lead combined exposure lead to a synergistic effect on upregulation of ICAM-1 and MAdCAM-1 expression, particularly ICAM-1. The combined exposure of black carbon and lead may upregulate the expression of ICAM-1 by downregulating the expression of miR-326.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the molecular mechanism of excessive iodine induced experimental autoimmune thyroiditis (EAT) in mice.Methods:Sixty female non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice were selected and divided into 5 groups according to body weight [(25 ± 3) g] via the random number table method, with 12 mice in each group: control group (group A), 10-fold high iodine group (group B), 100-fold high iodine group (group C), 1 000-fold high iodine group (group D) and 1 000-fold high iodine combined with polyinosinic acid-polycytidylic acid [Poly (I:C)] group (group E). The experiment period was 16 weeks. Mice in each group drank purified water with sodium iodine (NaI) content of 0.000, 0.005, 0.050, 0.500 and 0.500 mg/L, respectively; mice in group E were intraperitoneally injected with Poly (I:C) at week 7 and week 15, respectively. At the end of the 16th week, mice were dissected and blood samples and thyroid tissue were taken. The levels of serum thyroid function indexes [thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free triiodothyronine (FT 3), free thyroxine (FT 4), and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb)] were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); the pathological changes of thyroid tissue were observed after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining; differentially expressed genes in thyroid tissue were detected by RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), and analyzed by KEGG pathway; mRNA and protein levels of p38, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and chemokine 10 (CXCL10) in thyroid tissue were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPCR) and Western blotting, respectively. Results:There were statistically significant differences in serum levels of TSH (ng/ml: 6.53 ± 0.86, 6.61 ± 0.82, 7.68 ± 0.55, 7.93 ± 0.60, 8.73 ± 1.60), FT 3 (pg/ml: 59.35 ± 10.16, 53.73 ± 10.96, 46.19 ± 8.03, 41.01 ± 8.67, 34.21 ± 11.75), FT 4 (pg/ml: 136.74 ± 10.06, 124.33 ± 14.34, 101.80 ± 6.78, 91.37 ± 6.75, 73.29 ± 17.31), and TPOAb (U/ml: 130.81 ± 24.53, 145.47 ± 28.89, 166.52 ± 41.59, 199.78 ± 42.19, 201.99 ± 44.03) among the 5 groups of mice ( F = 4.77, 4.96, 23.12, 3.68, P < 0.05). Compared with group A, the serum TSH levels of mice in groups C, D and E were higher, the levels of FT 3 and FT 4 in groups B, C, D and E were lower, and the levels of TPOAb in groups D and E were higher, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). HE staining showed that the thyroid follicle lesion in groups D and E was serious, and the EAT phenotype appeared in both groups. The differentially expressed genes were analyzed by KEGG pathway. Compared with group A, 8 metabolic pathways related to thyroid autoimmunity and inflammation were found in groups B, C, D and E. Further analysis found that 3 genes appeared in multiple pathways, namely p38, ICAM-1 and CXCL10. There were significant differences in the mRNA levels of p38, ICAM-1 and CXCL10 in thyroid tissue of the 5 groups of mice ( F = 14.77, 12.76, 16.39, P < 0.05); compared with group A, the mRNA levels of p38 in groups B, C, D and E were higher, and the mRNA levels of ICAM-1 and CXCL10 in groups C, D and E were higher ( P < 0.05). There were significant differences in the protein levels of p38, ICAM-1 and CXCL10 in thyroid tissue of the 5 groups of mice ( F = 7.97, 73.86, 18.02, P < 0.05); compared with group A, the protein levels of ICAM-1 and CXCL10 in groups B, C, D and E were higher ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:Excessive iodine promotes the occurrence and development of EAT in mice by up-regulating the expressions of p38 and ICAM-1 genes that are closely related to thyroid autoimmune and inflammatory responses.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore new methods of treating Graves′ disease (GD) by targeting thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1).Methods:The small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting TSHR and the ICAM-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) were designed and synthesized. Thirty GD model mice were randomly divided into siRNA treatment group, ICAM-1 mAb treatment group, and untreated GD group (10 mice in each group), and 10 normal mice were taken as blank control. Serum thyroxine (T 4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), TSH receptor-stimulating antibody (TSAb) and TSH-stimulation blocking antibody (TSBAb) were measured before and after treatment. At the end of the treatment, body mass and heart rate of mice in each group were measured, and thyroid uptake of 99Tc mO 4-, thyroid size and pathological changes were evaluated. Independent-sample t test, paired t test and one-way analysis of variance were used to analyze data. Results:After three treatments, the body mass of mice in siRNA group and ICAM-1 mAb group were significantly lower than that of normal mice ( F=3.50, P=0.025); the heart rates of the mice in two groups were significantly lower than that of untreated GD mice ( F=24.73, P<0.001). Heart rate of mice treated with siRNA decreased significantly, close to that of normal mice. After treatment, the serum T 4((27.58±1.94) vs (65.71±6.89) μg/L, (27.24±3.50) vs (70.84±8.46) μg/L), TSAb ((331.44±43.38) vs (457.33±45.85) mU/L, (275.16±45.80) vs (443.91±42.32) mU/L) and TSBAb ((13.94±1.11) vs (15.83±5.92) mU/L, (14.59±1.02) vs (17.05±6.16) mU/L) levels of mice in both siRNA group and ICAM-1 mAb group significantly decreased ( t values: 4.45-10.87, all P<0.05), while the serum TSH levels of mice in two groups significantly increased ((0.13±0.05) vs (0.04±0.05) mU/L, (1.46±0.34) vs (0.06±0.03) mU/L; t values: -2.22, -5.87, P values: 0.007, <0.001). The elevated TSH level and decreased TSAb level of mice treated with ICAM-1 mAb were significantly different from those treated with siRNA ( t values: 1.03, -1.63, P values: 0.002, 0.031). After treatment, the uptake of 99Tc mO 4- in part of the thyroid lobes of mice was decreased, and the enlargement degree of the corresponding lobes was reduced. The thyroid pathology of mice in the treated groups showed that the absorption vacuoles of thyroid follicles were reduced, and the phenomenon of thinner colloids was improved. No obvious damage was observed in the heart, liver and kidneys of the mice. Conclusions:Both the siRNA targeting TSHR and ICAM-1 mAb have therapeutic effects on GD model mice. The siRNA is better at controlling heart rate, and ICAM-1 mAb is better at increasing TSH and decreasing TSAb. Each of the above treatment methods is safe and effective, which can provide new ideas for GD targeted therapy.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: Endocan, a 50 kDa soluble proteoglycan, also called endothelial cell-specific molecule-1 (ESM-1), is involved in many major cellular activities and has been reported to be overexpressed in inflammatory conditions. This study aims to determine ESM-1 levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples from individuals with periodontitis to determine the correlation between the levels of lymphocyte-function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and clinical findings of periodontitis. This study enrolled 27 individuals diagnosed with Stage III-Grade C generalized periodontitis and 16 individuals as healthy controls. Bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD), and clinical attachment loss (CAL) were calculated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test was used for detecting the levels of ESM-1, ICAM-1, and LFA-1 in GCF samples. PPD, BOP, CAL, and GCF volumes were significantly increased in patients with periodontitis in comparison to the control group (p < 0.001). The total amount of ESM-1, ICAM-1, and LFA-1 levels in GCF were increased in the periodontitis group (p < 0.001). ESM-1 level correlated with PPD, BOP, and CAL (p < 0.05). ICAM-1 level correlated with BOP and CAL (p < 0.05). LFA-1 level correlated with PPD and CAL (p < 0.05). Our data indicate that ESM-1, ICAM-1, and LFA-1 levels are increased in GCF of patients with periodontitis. These molecules could be associated with the pathogenesis and progression of periodontal disease.

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the effect of propylthiouracil treatment on adhesion molecules in patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism. METHODS In this study, a total of 168 patients diagnosed with subclinical hyperthyroidism were treated with propylthiouracil for one year. The levels of adhesion molecules, consisting of sICAM-1, sVCAM-1, and sE-Selectin, before and after the treatment were measured and compared. These results were compared with the levels of 148 healthy controls who received a placebo. RESULTS sICAM-1 levels were significantly higher in subclinical hyperthyroidism patients than in healthy controls (*pa=0.000). sICAM-1 levels were significantly decreased after the treatment (**pb=0.000). Despite this decrease in patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism, it did not decrease to the level of the control group. sVCAM-1 did not change before and after propylthiouracil treatment. The level of sE-selectin was similar to that of the pretreatment control group, but it did not have statistical significance, although it increased after the treatment (**pb=0.004). CONCLUSION The sICAM level was significantly higher than the pretreatment values and decreased after the propylthiouracil treatment. However, further studies are needed to reduce the risk of atherosclerosis and cancer in patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism.


RESUMO ANTECEDENTES O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar o efeito do tratamento com propiltiouracil nas moléculas de adesão em pacientes com hipertireoidismo subclínico. MÉTODOS Neste estudo, 168 pacientes diagnosticados com hipertireoidismo subclínico foram tratados com propiltiouracil por um ano. Os níveis de moléculas de adesão, especificamente sICAM-1, sVCAM-1 e sE-Selectina, antes e após o tratamento foram medidos e comparados. Esses resultados foram comparados com os níveis de 148 indivíduos saudáveis no grupo de controle que receberam um placebo. RESULTADOS Os níveis de sICAM-1 foram significativamente maiores em pacientes com hipertireoidismo subclínico do que nos controles saudáveis (*pa=0,000). Os níveis de sICAM-1 diminuíram significativamente após o tratamento (**pb=0,000). Apesar dessa diminuição em pacientes com hipertireoidismo subclínico, ela não diminuiu para o nível do grupo controle. O sVCAM-1 não se alterou antes e após o tratamento com propiltiouracil. O nível de sE-Selectina foi semelhante ao do grupo de controle pré-tratamento, mas não apresentou significância estatística, embora tenha aumentado após o tratamento (** pb = 0,004). CONCLUSÃO O nível de sICAM foi significativamente superior aos valores pré-tratamento e diminuiu após o tratamento com propilciliouracil. No entanto, mais estudos são necessários para reduzir o risco de aterosclerose e câncer em pacientes com hipertireoidismo subclínico.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Early application of hyperbaric oxygen adjuvant therapy can relieve blisters, swelling and other symptoms, and thus improves the survival rate of skin flaps. Edaravone can effectively eliminate free radicals in the injured area of skin flaps. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect and mechanism of hyperbaric oxygen combined with edaravone on the survival rate of avulsed flap in rabbits. METHODS: Fifty-four healthy New Zealand white rabbits were provided by Laboratory Animal Center of Medical Collage of Soochow University. A 1.5 cm x 8 cm pedicled rectangle flap of the rabbit central artery was made on the middle of the rabbit left ear back, and created crush injury using special device. The 48 model rabbits were randomly divided into four groups (n=12/group), and received no intervention (control group), hyperbaric oxygen therapy, 3 mg/kg·d edaravone injection via tail vein, or hyperbaric oxygen therapy combined with edaravone (combination group), for 3 continuous days. The microcirculation of skin flap was observed at 3 days after treatment. The flap survival area was measured at 7 days after treatment. The survived flap was removed for hematoxylin-eosin staining. The expression levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 in flap tissue were detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Laser doppler and infrared thermal imaging system showed that the blood perfusion reached the distal segment of skin flap in the combination group, reached the middle segment of skin flap in the hyperbaric oxygen and edaravone groups, and reached the proximal segment of skin flap in the control group. (2) The survival rate of flap in the combination group was significantly higher than that in the other three groups (P < 0.05). The survival rate in the edaravone and hyperbaric oxygen groups was significnatly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). (3) The degree of inflammatory infiltration in the combination group was significantly low, and the degree of inflammatory infiltration in the control group was significantly higher than that in the hyperbaric oxygen and edaravone groups. (4) The mRNA and protein expression levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay were lowest in the combination group (P < 0.05), and the levels in the hyperbaric oxygen and edaravone groups were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). (5) To conclude, hyperbaric oxygen combined with edaravone can effectively promote the survival of rabbit ear avulsed skin flap, which is related to the decreased expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the efficacy of double low-profile visualized intraluminal support (LVIS) stent assisted embolization in the treatment of acute intracranial wide-neck aneurysms and its relation with levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (SICAM-1) and S100B. Methods A total of 114 patients with acute intracranial wide-neck aneurysms admitted to our hospital from June 2014 to December 2018 were collected. According to different treatment options, the patients in the study group (n=58) were treated with double LVIS stent-assisted embolization, while those in the control group (n=56) were treated with LVIS stent-assisted embolization. The embolization degrees of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms were evaluated by Raymond grading immediately after surgery, the efficacy of the patients was evaluated by modified Rankin scale (mRS) at discharge, and the serum SICAM-1 and S100B protein levels of the patients with different treatment methods and different curative effects before and after surgery were compared. Results As compared with those in the control group, the degrees of arterial embolization immediately after surgery and good therapeutic effect rate at discharge were significantly higher in the study group (P<0.05). After treatment, the serum levels of SICAM-1 and S100B were significantly lower in the study group than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of SICAM-1 and S100B in patients with good therapeutic effect ([147.5±9.8] mg/mL and [0.106±0.027] mg/mL) were significantly lower than those in the patients with poor therapeutic effect ([172.8 ±4.0] mg/mL and [0.158±0.002] mg/mL, P<0.05). Conclusions The embolization rate and therapeutic effect can be significantly improved in patients with acute intracranial wide-neck aneurysms after double-LVIS stent-assisted embolization. The serum levels of SICAM-1 and S100B are significantly increased in patients with poor therapeutic effect.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe the long-term toxicity of chelerythrine on the morphology of lung tissue and the expression level of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) in lung tissue of the rats, and to investigate the related mechanism which causing the lung tissue damage of rats. Methods: A total of 120 Wistar rats were divided into control group (given normal saline) and low (3. 7 mg middot; kg-1), moderate (5. 6 mg middot; kg-1), high (8. 4 mg middot; kg-1) dosages of chelerythrine groups (n=30). The general condition of rats in various groups was observed; HE staining was used to observe the morphology of lung tissue of the rats in various groups; the serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels of the rats in various groups were measured by ELISA method; real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blotting methods were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of NF-κB and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). Results: The accumulative mortality of the rats in high dosage of chelerythrine group was the highest, followed by moderate and low dosages of chelerythrine groups. The body weights and food intakes of the rats in different dosages of chelerythrine groups were significantly lower than that in control group (P<0. 05), while the body weight and food intake of the rats in high dosage of chelerythrine group were lower than those in low and moderate dosages of chelerythrine groups (P<0. 05). Chelerythrine led to pulmonary congestion and bloody ascites of the rats. The HE staining results showed that the injuries of lung tissue in different dosages of chelerythrine groups were aggravated with the increasing of the dosage of chelerythrine. Compared with control group, the levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α in serum of the rats in different dosages of chelerythrine groups were increased significantly (P< 0.05); compared with low and moderate dosages of chelerythrine groups, the levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α in serum of the rats in high dosage of chelerythrine group were increased significantly (P<0. 05). Compared with control group, the expression levels of NF-κB and ICAM-1 mRNA and proteins in lung tissue of the the rats in different dosages of chelerythrine groups were increased significantly (P<0. 05) in a dose-dependent manner; compared with low and moderate dosages of chelerythrine groups, the expression levels of NF-κB and ICAM-1 mRNA and proteins in lung tissue of the rats in high dosage of chelerythrine group were increased (P<0. 05). Conclusion: Chelerythrine has a long-term toxic effect on lung tissue in a dose-dependent manner of the rats. Moderate and high dosages of chelerythrine may aggravate the toxic lung injury through activation of NF-κB and production of inflammatory cytokines.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the biological function of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) gene in coronary heart disease (CHD) and to establish a primary regulatory network mediated by ICAM-1 gene. Methods The databases were searched from January 1st 2006 to December 31st 2018, including Wanfang, CNKI, VIP, Google scholar and PubMed databases for published researches on clinical study of CHD gene ICAM-1. The experimental group was CHD patients, and the control group was healthy people. Meta-analysis was employed to analyze the relationship between ICAM-1 gene and CHD. Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG Pathway database were employed to conduct function annotation and pathway analysis. Results A total of 8 papers were enrolled into this analysis, Meta-analysis showed that the level of ICAM-1 in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group [mean difference (MD) = 15.29, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 10.95-19.62, P < 0.000 01], surface ICAM-1 was significantly related with CHD. The GO analysis results showed that ICAM-1 molecular function mainly involved virus receptor activity, receptor activity, transmembrane signal receptor activity, protein binding, etc.; cell components mainly involve plasma membrane integral components, immune synapses, plasma membrane, etc.; biological processes mainly involve the positive regulation of cell adhesion, leukocyte adhesion, leukocyte migration and leukocyte adhesion, etc. A primary CHD regulatory network mediated by ICAM-1 gene was established based on KEGG Pathway database, and ICAM-1 was mainly expressed in endothelial cells, and further regulated the occurrence and development of CHD by promoting the proliferation of leukocytes. Conclusions ICAM-1 may regulate the occurrence and development of CHD by regulating the related biological processes of leukocytes. The successful establishment of the ICAM-1 mediated CHD regulatory network can lay a theoretical foundation for further exploring the specific regulatory role of ICAM-1 and other related genes in CHD occurrence.

According to the clinical activity score(CAS), the patients were divided into active stage group and inactive stage group. According to the severity, they were divided into mild group, moderate group and severe group. There were 90 healthy persons were selected as the control group at the same time. The general data, serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 levels were compared among groups and the correlation of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 levels with the severity of TAO was analyzed. <p>RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the clinical basic data of patients in between the different clinical active stage groups and the control group, and between the different severity groups and the control group(<i>P</i>>0.05). The levels of serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in the active stage group were significantly higher than those in the inactive stage group and the control group(<i>P</i><0.01). The levels of serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in active stage patients of different severity groups were significantly higher than those in inactive stage patients and of control groups(<i>P</i><0.01). There were no significant differences in levels of serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in inactive stage patients of different severity groups. The levels of serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in active stage patients of different severity groups increased gradually with the severity of the disease. There was no significant correlation between levels of serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in inactive stage patients and the severity of disease(<i>r</i>=0.102, 0.095, <i>P</i>=0.135, 0.167). Levels of serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in active stage patients were positively correlated to severity of disease(<i>r</i>=0.695, 0.824, <i>P</i>=0.005, 0.002).<p>CONCLUSION: The levels of serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in inactive patients will not increase with the severity of the disease. However, the levels in patients with active disease will increase with the severity of the disease, which can be used for clinical diagnosis and staging of TAO and monitoring of the prognosis.

ABSTRACT

@# Objective: To investigate the value of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) for the diagnosis and prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Methods: Eighty patients with pancreatic cancer (pancreatic cancer group), forty patients with benign pancreatic disease (benign disease group) who were admitted to Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery in Cancer Hospital of Hubei Province fromApril 2015 to December 2017 were included in the study; and thirty healthy subjects during the same period were included as control. Serum ICAM-1 and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) levels were determined in all the three groups. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the diagnostic characteristics of ICAM-1 for pancreatic cancer. The COX regression model was used to analyze whether serum ICAM-1 was independently associated with the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer. Results: The levels of ICAM-1 and CA19-9 in pancreatic cancer group were significantly higher than those in benign disease group and control group (P<0.01). The level of CA19-9 in benign disease group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.01). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of serum ICAM-1, CA19-9 and the combinations of both was 0.732 (95% CI: 0.658-0.807, P=0.000), 0.691 (95% CI: 0.620-0.762, P=0.000), and 0.747 (95% CI: 0.674-0.821, P=0.000), respectively. There was a significant positive correlation between ICAM-1 and CA19-9 (r=0.472, P=0.000). The survival time of patients with serum ICAM-1< 2 308 U/ml was significantly longer than that of patients with ICAM-1≥2 308 U/ml (χ2=28.357,P=0.000); COX regression analysis showed that ICAM-1≥2 308 U/ml was an independent influence factor for prognosis, with an OR of 3.08 (2.14-7.23). Conclusion: Serum ICAM-1 contributes to the early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of pancreatic cancer.
